In my experience it seems the cobalt line started with a 5.2ish version
of redhat, but thats more of a mips thing :( and it grew from there to
today.
"most" redhat rpms are not compatable at all... if it isn't one thing it's
another! however, the majority of 6.2 srpms can be rebuilt on a raq with
some adjustments and work just fine... I perfer to use the more current 7.2
or 7.2 updates, or devel dist's with some mod's....
However you should keep in mind that a cobalt raq is a highly developed
redhat version and building without checking the operation of a previous
package may result in an undesired reaction by your raq. ie: crash boom
bang.
never --force anything into it...
